About this property
Modern Home with Heated Pool, Game Room, and 4 miles to the Beach!

Rosie's Retreat is a spacious 4 bed/3 bath pool home, with large dual suites, that can accommodate up to 10 guests. It has a very private, spacious full suite on one side of the house that has french doors to the Florida room. This suite has a king size bed, a futon bed, sitting area with bar sink and fridge, walk in closet, and an enormous bathroom with a walk in shower built for 2 with dual showerheads, and a double sink vanity. On the other side of the house is a second spacious suite, also with a king size bed, sitting area, large closet, and full bathroom with a walk in shower and double sink vanity. This side also has 2 additional bedrooms, both with queen size beds. They share a full bathroom with a tub/shower combo, and also a dual sink vanity. The back of the house has a spacious enclosed Florida room with a lounge area with patio furnature, and outdoor dining tables. Outside the Florida room is the pool to cool off during the warm sunny days!
The garage has been converted to a game room with a full sized ping pong table, air hockey table, fooseball table, corn hole, and giant jenga. The home has a large driveway with plenty of room for a boat. The home has a well appointed kitchen, washer/dryer, 4 smart tvs, bbq grill, and wireless internet. Rosie's Retreat is located in Gulf Breeze, Florida, just 3.6 miles from Pensacola Beach, 5.8 miles from Pensacola Dog Beach, and just minutes from various Gulf Island National Seashore areas. It's also located less than 7 miles from downtown Pensacola, where you'll find unique restaurants, fine dining, museums, and more. Pensacola is the home of the Navy's Blue Angels, where you can often see them flying tight formations over the city and water from March-November. The home is located less than a mile from a public boat launch, and a half mile from a large park with a dog park, disc golf course, skate park, splash pad, playground and more. Up to 3 Dogs welcome with an additional fee of $150. Dogs must be crated if left unattended. No smoking of any type allowed inside or in the Florida room. No events or parties are permitted. A maximum of 10 guests are allowed to stay in the home, and must be at least 25 years old to book. The pool is not fenced, and has a deep area so children need to be supervised at all times. There's a $40/day pool heat charge if you'd like the pool heated. This home is under a pest control by a professional company, but in Florida's climate, insects are around throughout the year so please don't leave any of the doors open to allow for unwanted entry. Refunds will not be given if a few insects are found in the home. This home features a Ring Doorbell device with an exterior security camera facing the front outdoor entry, and the camera does not look into any interior spaces. There is also a security camera facing the pool. Footage is only reviewed if an incident in the pool occurs.

We had a lovely stay in this very clean, organized, and well-planned home. It was immaculate! The host is very responsive and kind. The game room and heated pool were hits. The TV sitting area in the bedroom off the back porch was perfect spot for gamers to set up their consoles and play. The spacious screened patio is perfect for eating and visiting, as are the den and dining area. It's very well-appointed. Laundry pods are under the kitchen sink. Do bring your own shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. You will love staying here with friends and family!
The ideal location for a family or group of friends. In a nice, quiet neighborhood just a few minutes drive from Shoreline Park and Publix, and just 10 minutes to Pensacola Beach. The pool was wonderful, host was responsive and house was very comfortable.
What a great gathering house for our Thanksgiving with local family. The house was well-appointed and felt clean. The kids loved the pool even in the 50’s! Great location
This was a great spot for our family to enjoy some special time together in the Pensacola area! So easy to get to. Felt very safe and had all the amenities we needed. Open spaces are large, great for games and dining. Bedrooms + bathrooms were all cozy and clean. Owners were communicative and gracious. We'd totally stay here again!
This is a nice, remodeled house. Very spacious with four bedrooms. We had four couples and it was plenty of room. We didn't get to use the pool because it was too cold out, but it's a nice pool area.
We had the best time here, this house was everything so spacious, plenty of room, the pool was a added bonus 😀 everything was close to us...mann we will be traveling back that way again to stay in this beautiful house 🏠 ❤️ 😀
The property is conveniently located in a nice neighborhood with everything you need a short distance away. The home is clean with a big open kitchen/dining/family space and the private pool was great fun. Sara is very responsive to any questions or needs that may arise - would certainly stay here again.
We stayed for 5 nights during Thanksgiving week and hosted a family dinner for 20 with the advanced permission from the host. It was big and spacious and accommodated our family well. The microwave broke and the host was extremely prompt with contact and a replacement. Would stay again.
All seven who slept at Rosie’s Retreat gave👍👍👍👍👍. And we local parents, family enjoyed visiting.
I don’t think anyone swam much…too busy visiting, etc.
Especially loved the Rosie art. 😀 🐾🐶. Gus says hi.
Great location, close to town, beautiful, spacious house.
Wished heated pool was a little warmer so we could swim only negative.
Overall, definetley rent again
As a highly rated host myself, I know something about what it takes to create a great experience. This home hits all the right buttons. Great floor plan. Nice neighborhood. Beautifully updated. Spacious. Well equipped and maintained. Great location. Quick and thorough responses from the host.
We will definitely stay again.
Exactly as described! Perfect for larger families.
Communication from the very start was top notch! Quick helpful replies to any and all questions. Nestled in a quiet neighborhood while less than 10 minutes from the beach. Bathrooms large and beautiful, bedrooms large and comfy! Pool nice, easy to use cover. The deep end requires constant supervision of the littles but you should be watching anyhow. If there was 1 thing I thought would have made it better, better pool lighting, corner lights just not enough to have kids swimming after dusk. I would stay again 100%, the entire family and grandkids loved it!
We really enjoyed the property. It felt clean and new. The only complaint I have is the coffee pot had coffee grains in the water reservoir so it was not usable to us and the towels smelled of mildew which was an easy fix for us since they had a washer and dryer that had a sanitizing setting.
Overall, we loved this location, the amount of space and restrooms they had and the host was easy to contact.
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home. It was absolutely beautiful and the customer service was beyond impeccable. All of our questions were answered in a timely manner and the property manager Sara was able to correct any issues that we had, and was such a pleasure to work with. My grandmother really enjoyed celebrating her 85th birthday in this home and she said she felt so rested and relaxed from the pool, the comfort of the bed, and the different amenities. It was worth very dollar!
This was a very nice place to stay. Very spacious for our family of 6. Very clean home, and just very nice overall. The pool was great for us! We paid extra for the heat for the pool, and used the pool all week. Very nicely located between Pensacola and Pensacola Beach. Lots of options closeby for restaurants, groceries, and entertainment. Only negative we found was that the living room furniture was not very comfortable for as nice as the house was. The main couch was a futon, and the loveseat was similar. We would stay here again if visiting this area in the future!
The house was very spacious for all of us . The pool was very big . I wish the beach was walking distance, but we were aware it wasn’t and it still was not a bad drive . Might hate seeing how much toll bill we get. They need a new couch , there are two futon couches and not comfy at all . Also, some more towels for the home for a large group , we washed several times.
We had a great stay here. The home was clean and modernly appointed. Communication with the owner was always met with a prompt response. We didn't need all 4 beds, but if you did, you'd still have plenty of space to spread out. We had our pup with us, so having the fenced in yard was nice for her to roam while we enjoyed the pool.
If I had to find a gripe it would be the grill. It was very rusty and the middle burner was collapsing. Time for a new one. Other than that it was a 5-star stay!

must love dogs to stay here!
The inside was nicely decorated, and the bathrooms have beautiful tile showers, with the best water pressure. Very convenient to the Beach and Festival Grounds at Pensacola Maritime Park. If you are not a dog person, this is not the place for you. Dog hair all over, even after I called and they re-cleaned. Dog hair in the towels and on all of the bedding. The outside could use some work around the pool and in the playroom. Overall we had a good time.
